Installed in 2005 by sculptor Josep Maria Subirachs, this bronze sculpture of the risen Jesus Christ is covered in gold leaf. It sits high above the Passion Façade on a bridge between the two central bell towers of the basilica of the Sagrada Familia in Barcelona, Spain.

PhotographyThe Torre dei Conti (Tower of the Counts) was built in 1238 by the brother of Pope Innocent III, the Count of Segni, as a fortified residence in Rome, Italy. The tower once stood 60 meters tall, as an impressive medieval landmark. The upper floors were destroyed by a series of earthquakes ending in 1348, it now stands at a height of 30 meters. You walk by the building on Via dei Fori Imperiali (Street of Imperial Forums) near the Coliseum.
